Parents fear video games more than porn, alcohol.

Does anyone else find this as bizarre? I would rather my kid played video games than start off as a teenage (or younger) alcoholic!

Parents are more concerned about their children?s exposure to video games than alcohol, violence and pornography, according to recent polls.

Conducted by What They Play, a parent?s guide to video games, nearly 3,000 respondents in two separate polls concluded that drinking beer and watching pornography were less objectionable activities for children than playing certain video games. Further, viewing violence was more acceptable than seeing content involving sex and sexuality within games.

?These poll results demonstrate that parents are as apprehensive about their children?s media diets as they are about traditional social issues such as alcohol, drugs, violence and sex,? said John Davison, president of What They Like, the San Francisco company that runs What They Play. ?When it comes to video games, parents should know that What They Play is a resource that helps demystify one of the most popular ? and challenging ? forms of entertainment their kids are into.?
